Community Youth Advance Serving more than 600 youth each year with programs providing mentorship, tutoring, experiential lear

Community Youth Advance was incorporated in 2017, after a merger between two well-established nonprofits in Prince George's County serving more than 600 youth each year with programs providing mentorship, tutoring, experiential learning, entrepreneurial education, and post-secondary pathways under three mission pillars: Teach, Reach and Keep.

✨ The brilliance is already in the making! ✨

Our students are hard at work preparing their presentations for the Unleashing Brilliance Gala, and we couldn’t be prouder! 🎤💫 From organizing their thoughts to building confidence and practicing their delivery, these scholars are getting ready to share their voices, experiences, and aspirations.

At Community Youth Advance, we believe every young person has brilliance within them. Sometimes, all they need is the opportunity, encouragement, and platform to let it shine. 🌟

We can’t wait for our students to take the stage and remind us why investing in youth matters!

💙 Teach. Reach. Keep. Empowering the next generation, one scholar at a time.

Congratulations to Bella from JLA.

Bella was the lucky winner of a 50” TV during the final day of Summer Academy 2026! Even more impressive, she was one of 45 scholars who achieved 100% attendance throughout the program.

Her commitment, consistency, and dedication paid off in more ways than one! We’re incredibly proud of all of our scholars who showed up every day ready to learn, grow, and make the most of their summer.

Way to go, Bella!

Flashback Friday!! Our students don’t just participate—they lead.

At the MoMENtum Conference, Jeners proudly represented Community Youth Advance by welcoming guests, answering questions, and sharing information about our programs and the impact they’re making in our community.

Opportunities like these help our scholars develop confidence, strengthen their communication skills, and gain real-world leadership experience while serving as ambassadors for CYA.

We’re incredibly proud of Jeners for representing our mission with professionalism and enthusiasm!

Learning reached new heights at Tree Trekkers! Our scholars combined adventure with education as they explored the science behind forces, motion, and structural design while navigating the aerial course. By collecting real-world data and analyzing how engineering principles keep climbers safe, students experienced STEM concepts in action and strengthened their critical thinking skills.
At Community Youth Advance, we believe the best learning happens when students can see, experience, and apply what they're taught.

One conversation can inspire a lifetime of change.

We’re looking back at a powerful moment as one of our dedicated mentors shares wisdom, encouragement, and life lessons with a group of young men. These moments of connection, guidance, and honest conversation are at the heart of what we do at Community Youth Advance—helping young people build confidence, character, and the skills to lead with purpose.

Because every great leader starts with someone who believes in them.

Looking back at one of our favorite moments—our student interns interviewing each other about their experiences with Community Youth Advance! From reflecting on the impact of this past year’s programs to sharing their excitement as we prepare for an even bigger year ahead, their voices remind us why we do this work.

At CYA, we’re not just building programs—we’re developing future leaders.

The best is yet to come! 💙💚
